Gulfstream Aerospace Gulfstream G7-G600

Twin Jet· 85 globally registered

The Gulfstream G650 redefined ultra-long-range business aviation when it entered service in 2012, becoming the largest and fastest purpose-built business jet in Gulfstream's lineup. Capable of flying 7,000 nautical miles nonstop at Mach 0.85 or reaching Mach 0.925 in high-speed cruise, making it the fastest certified civilian aircraft in production, the G650 connects city pairs like New York to Dubai or Los Angeles to London without refueling. Its maximum operating altitude of 51,000 feet allows it to fly above most weather and commercial traffic, while the spacious cabin accommodates up to 19 passengers in configurations ranging from corporate shuttles to flying executive suites with full galleys, showers, and sleeping quarters. Powered by twin Rolls-Royce BR725 engines producing 16,900 pounds of thrust each, the G650 set more than 50 city-pair speed records during its certification campaign. The stretched G650ER variant, introduced in 2014, extends range to 7,500 nautical miles through additional fuel capacity while maintaining the same performance envelope. The type's combination of transcontinental range, near-sonic speed, and stand-up cabin has made it the flagship choice for Fortune 500 flight departments, heads of state, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals seeking the ultimate in business aviation capability. SkyMeter has tracked 54 flights across 38 airframes and 25 operators, with CONTRAIL AVIATION LLC the largest observed operator.
